- Velcro.
- Needles if handing sewing or sewing
machine.
Instructions:
- The
first starts with measurement. Measure the length of your bar inside the shoes.
- Now,
cut the pipe insulation to fit. Adjust if necessary.
- After
that, slice the side of the pipe insulation lengthwise. Place it around your bar and make sure it’s a good fit.
- Taking
your bar, measure your fabric, allowing a half-inch on all sides (Sides to bottom) to create your seam. Wrap it around the pipe insulation to make sure it fits around the circumference.

the edge to create a clean seam Secure with pins.

your fabric.
